This book kind of gets lost in itself. It rambles at times, with long stints that have nothing to do with RENT. It is an enjoyable read, quick to get through, very interesting story, but I didn't feel like it was done. It could have been tightened up a bit. I still definitely enjoyed it! I love RENT, love Anthony Rapp, an love getting an inside look at people and things.

I CAN'T EXPRESS MY LOVE FOR THIS BOOK ENOUGH. I didn't read it for the longest time because I am very not interested in classic literature, but I saw the BBC/A&E production of it, and decided I just had to read the story. This book has basically become the one book I can't live with out. I think that is the highest praise I can give it. Basically, the writing is wonderful, the characters are wonderful, nothing seems too forced, and oh, how I love it.

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I honestly didn’t know if a reality star could write since it’s harder than people give it credit for. It was better than I was expecting and was a fun read. It takes the general premise for The Hills and tweaks it into something that would be a perfect primetime teen melodrama. I have a feeling that this is going to be like Twilight in that the writing will get better as Conrad goes along with the series. My overall feeling is between I liked it and it was OK but this site doesn't have a 2.5 star option and I don’t regret reading it. It was a fun, fluffy, easy read.

I spent close six years in primary school growing up under a Malay teacher who kept emphasising to us how Malays are inherently born with the tendency to be indolent, lazy and generally unproductive. Along the way, she introduced us to texts such as “The Malay Dilemma” by the former Prime Minister of Malaysia, detailing how inbreeding amongst the Malay community have given birth to a civilisation that is genetically inferior, inherently stupid and should not be expected to be on par with their peers that descended from East Asia. This is the justification, according to her, why Malays must make the effort to work even harder than other races to avoid this genetic anomaly that we have been cursed with. It suffices to say that “The Myth of the Lazy Native” is a book that I should have picked up much earlier on in life. The construct of Malays as being a lazy community has sadly saddled itself deep into the crevices of our subconscious. Even amongst Malays, there is ample evidence in popular literature to show that we have largely taken on the belief that we are an inherently backward community. But Syed Hussein Alatas shows us in this critique that here was upon of time in history where the Malays were admired for our economic finesse. Malays built the largest ships, were excellent merchants and spread our influence, culture and literature far and wide beyond this region. In 1518, Duarte Barbossa described the city of Malacca as “the richest sea port with the greatest number of wholesale merchants and abundance of shipping and trade in the whole word”. In a report dated 1637 to Holland on the situation in Makassar, Dutch merchant Hendrik Kerckringh described the Malays as people held in high-esteem and of great means who developed properties in the area. But progressive colonial invasions by the Portuguese, Dutch and British marked the start of the decline in Malay economic activity. Crippled by forced monopolies and relocations, the Malay merchant class receded away from town centres into the rural areas taking on subsistence agriculture as a primary form of sustenance. In preferring rural agriculture over colonial industries and the colonial brand of capitalism Malays are branded as lazy, indolent and unproductive – especially when compared with indentured labourers from China and India. These constructs endured and evolved over the centuries to the form it comes in today – a general acceptance that Malays are lazy in comparison to other races. This book constitutes in the author’s own words, “an effort to correct a one-sided colonial view of the Asian native and his society”. Scholars of colonialism, post-colonialism and sociology will find this book to be of immense interest.

I was disappointed by this book. It's not really the book's fault, though. It was decently written with an interesting plot and moderately well-developed characters. What disappointed me was the direction the series took. The first two books set up this fascinating world where the family members are either seeing their dead ancestors or schizophrenic. The mother is classic V.C. Andrews-style abusive, and I was looking forward to this story being fleshed out, having an explanation for the visions, seeing the repercussions of Baby Celeste growing up in that family, reading about the older Celeste's therapy after masquerading as a boy for many years, finding out what happened to Panther... None of that is in this book. Baby Celeste is a 17 year old orphan at the beginning of this book, and then she gets adopted by some creepy rich people who have secrets of their own (which don't have anything to do with Celeste). It's almost like an entirely different series. I don't care about this other family's weird crap. That's not why I picked up this book. The elder Celeste barely even makes an appearance in these pages and it's frustrating as hell. The series also ends here. Usually an Andrews series (before the ghostwriter ran out of outlines left by the real Virginia Andrews) featured 3 books about a girl, one about her daughter, then a prequel about the mother or grandmother. Yes, it's formulaic, but it works. It satisfies the reader. The fourth book wraps things up, then the fifth book explains how they got to be all messed up in the first place. There is enough information to make you care about these people. I'm just....this makes me sad is all. I feel like I could have done a better job finishing out the series myself, and that shouldn't be the case. I'm not an author and I don't pretend to be, so for me to say that....it's pretty crappy. However, none of that has anything to do with the book that is. The book as it exists is an entertaining read, I just expected better from this author.

I keep changing my mind on this one. Beautifully written, layered, interesting. Surreal, absurd, and haunting. I didn't always know what was going on, but I was able to trust that Nova Ren Suma would carry the reader through it. There were some very powerful scenes, so vivid and disturbing that I could barely bring myself to turn the page. At the same time, though, I felt a disconnect while reading--I simply couldn't identify with Chloe's devotion to her self-centered, manipulative sister, and this was difficult to get past for me, as a reader. Ruby's role as the controlling center of everything threw this story into frustrating territory for me, and while I appreciated that unbalance--the uncomfortable can be a valuable place for literature, after all--I wanted some resolution to that feeling. I wanted Chloe to grow in some way that would make her claim the center of her own story, and she did not. A worthwhile read, and I do think I'll look for more from this author.
